Christmas guitar music

Getting ready to play 5 Christmas songs at our Church Christmas dinner!

Joy to the World,
Hark the Heralds Angels Sing/King of Heaven medley,
Go Tell It On The Mountain,
Mary's Boy Child,
Do You Hear What I Hear?/Little Drummer Boy medley (that I made up, last verse jumps up a key, really love this one!).

Just love singing Christmas songs with a bunch of people!  And since I'm doing this one on my own, I get to break out the dreadnaught, which only use when playing solo now. 

Love this time of year.  Everybody gets just a little bit nicer, a little bit more generous and a little bit more understanding.  

Well, except for those poor souls that have taken up the new career field of "take offense from anything you can think of engineer."   

I wonder if you were referring to this situation.
Baby It's Cold Outside

It is such a great song. Well worth re-writing the lyrics.  I can see why they're offensive.

I've often thought the same about many of Billie Holiday's songs.  Don't Explain could be a great song, but for some of the lyrics:
"I'd rather my man would hit me
Than for him to up and quit me."

The same goes for many of Stephen Foster's songs.
Massa's In De Cold, Cold Ground is a lovely melody, but the words are offensive.

Church is going caroling this Sunday. If it was going to be warmer I was thinking of taking the guitar, but since it is supposed to be in the 30s and we stand outside to sing, I am thinking probably not. Plus my fingers would be REALLY COLD trying to play outside!!
